HRMS - New Employee creation Errors out ORA-29861

Cause'PER_ADDRESSES_SPT' Index status is failed.
It should be valid.
unpublished bug 4440568 GET TRIGGER ERRORS ENTERING PEOPLE AND LOCATIONS IN HRMS
Reported issue points to a root cause of oracle spatial not being correctly installed on this environment.

Please fix your environment, re-run the index script noted above and recommence your testing.

Solution
To implement the solution, please execute the following steps in your test instance first:


1) ) Run $ORACLE_HOME/md/admin/mdinst.sql from 9iR2 Oracle_home.
connect as system/manager.

2) Forcefully drop the indexes.
connect apps/apps

drop index hr.HR_LOCATIONS_SPT force;
drop index HR.PER_ADDRESSES_SPT force;

3) Delete the entries from sdo_index_metadata_table
connect mdsys/mdsys

delete from sdo_index_metadata_table where sdo_index_name='HR_LOCATIONS_SPT';
delete from sdo_index_metadata_table wheresdo_index_name='PER_ADDRESSES_SPT';
commit;

4) rebuild the indexes.

sqlplus apps/apps @@$PER_TOP/patch/115/sql/irctxloc.sql HR applsys apps CTXSYS
sqlplus apps/apps @@$PER_TOP/patch/115/sql/irctxadr.sql HR applsys apps CTXSYS(
note : HR applsys apps CTXSYS are 4 parameters to the sql)

5) Verify that the index is valid by running

SQL > select DOMIDX_STATUS, DOMIDX_OPSTATUS from dba_indexes whereINDEX_NAME = 'PER_ADDRESSES_SPT';


BUT NONE OF THESE WORKED FOR ME. I DELETED THE INDEXES AND RETESTED THE ISSUE.. THE ISSUE GOT RESOLVED... :)

Dropping and index is not a solution, that is just avoiding the problem. You do not even know what all problem you created by solving this one.

Better check with Oracle before dropping a sedded object be it an index.

It is the same solution, what we have already discussed on OTN too. Please follow the OTN Forum, before commenting on my blog. Dont you know the meaning of recreating the index after dropping? that too with oracle provided script. The script i have mentioned here is being used by all PER patches to recreate or alter indexes. The issue was resolved and our implementation went very well. The issue itself is not pertaining to PER, it is the Oracle Spatial is not installed in your database. Kindly check it and proceed further.
